The dominant weather pattern setting up for the next 7 days will be the high-pressure ridge off the coast of the PNW.

Normally this would result in warm, sunny weather.. but for us we will probably see a mix of fog and (hopefully) sun. Calm winds and foggy, dewy weather will be the main story here.

On the extended, which can change, we see the ridge breakdown and models return to northwest flow which opens the storm door up from the gulf of Alaska.

For the snow lovers, I am seeing some hope in the extended for a possible return to winter weather.

Returning to the short term— for south whidbey, the Salish looks to keep us protected from any freezing fog, insulating us with slightly higher lows then elsewhere in Western WA.

Any clear nights might change that however, as temps can plummet without any fog or low clouds acting like a blanket. Something to watch for toward the end of the 7-day forecast.
